Identification

Summary

Irbesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker used to treat hypertension, delay progression of diabetic nephropathy, and treat congestive heart failure.

Brand Names
Avalide, Avapro, Ifirmacombi, Karvea, Karvezide
Generic Name
Irbesartan
DrugBank Accession Number
DB01029
Background

Irbesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) indicated to treat hypertension or diabetic nephropathy.7,8 It can also be used as part of a combination product with hydrochlorothiazide for patients not well controlled or not expected to be well controlled on monotherapy.8 Unlike angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, ARBs are not associated with a dry cough.7,8

Irbesartan was granted FDA approval on 30 September 1997.7,8

Pharmacology

Indication

Irbesartan is indicated to treat hypertension and diabetic nephropathy in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes, elevated serum creatinine, and proteinuria.7 A combination product with hydrochlorothiazide is indicated for hypertension in patients with uncontrolled hypertension with monotherapy or first line in patients not expected to be well controlled with monotherapy.8

Pharmacodynamics

Irbesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker used to treat hypertension and diabetic nephropathy.7,8 It has a long duration of action as it is usually taken once daily and a wide therapeutic index as doses may be as low as 150mg daily but doses of 900mg/day were well tolerated in healthy human subjects.7,8,5

Mechanism of action

Irbesartan prevents angiotensin II binding to the AT1 receptor in tissues like vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland.7,8 Irbesartan and its active metabolite bind the AT1 receptor with 8500 times more affinity than they bind to the AT2 receptor.7,8 Irbesartan's prevention of angiotensin II binding causes vascular smooth muscle relaxation and prevents the secretion of aldosterone, lowering blood pressure.7,8

Angiotensin II would otherwise bind to the AT1 receptor, inducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, raising blood pressure.7,8

Absorption

Irbesartan is 60-80% bioavailable with a Tmax of 1.5-2hours.7,8 Taking irbesartan with food does not affect the bioavailability.7,8

In one study, healthy subjects were given single or multiple oral doses of 150mg, 300mg, 600mg, and 900mg of irbesartan.5 A single 150mg dose resulted in an AUC of 9.7±3.0µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 16±7 hours, and a Cmax of 1.9±0.4µg/mL.5 A single 300mg dose resulted in an AUC of 20.0±5.2µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 14±7 hours, and a Cmax of 2.9±0.9µg/mL.5 A single 600mg dose resulted in an AUC of 32.6±11.9µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 14±8 hours, and a Cmax of 4.9±1.2µg/mL.5 A single 900mg dose resulted in an AUC of 44.8±20.0µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 17±7 hours, and a Cmax of 5.3±1.9µg/mL.5

Multiple 150mg doses resulted in an AUC of 9.3±3.0µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 11±4 hours, and a Cmax of 2.04±0.4µg/mL.5 Multiple 300mg doses resulted in an AUC of 19.8±5.8µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 2.0 hours, a half life of 11±5 hours, and a Cmax of 3.3±0.8µg/mL.5 Multiple 600mg doses resulted in an AUC of 31.9±9.7µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 15±7 hours, and a Cmax of 4.4±0.7µg/mL.5 Multiple 900mg doses resulted in an AUC of 34.2±9.3µg\•hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.8 hours, a half life of 14±6 hours, and a Cmax of 5.6±2.1µg/mL.5

Volume of distribution

The volume of distribution of irbesartan is 53-93L.7,8

Protein binding

Irbesartan is 90% protein bound in plasma, mainly to albumin and α1-acid glycoprotein.7,8

Metabolism

Irbesaran is largely metabolized by glucuronidation and oxidation in the liver.7,8 The majority of metabolism occurs through the action of CYP2C9 with a negligible contribution from CYP3A4.7,8 Some hydroxylation also occurs in irbesartan metabolism.3

Irbesartan can be glucuronidated by UGT1A3 to the M8 metabolite, oxidized to the M3 metabolite, or hydroxylated by CYP2C9 to one of the M4, M5, or M7 metabolites.4,3 The M4, M5, and M7 metabolites are all hydroxylated to become the M1 metabolite, which is then oxidized to the M2 metabolite.4,3 The M4 metabolite can also be oxidized to the M6 metabolite before hydroxylation to the M2 metabolite.4,3 Finally, the minor metabolite SR 49498 is generated from irbesartan by an unknown mechanism.4,3

Route of elimination

20% of a radiolabelled oral dose of irbesartan is recovered in urine, and the rest is recovered in the feces.10 <2% of the dose is recovered in urine as the unchanged drug.10

Half-life

The terminal elimination half life of irbesartan is 11-15 hours.7,8

Clearance

Total plasma clearance of irbesartan is 157-176mL/min while renal clearance is 3.0-3.5mL/min.7,8

Toxicity

The oral TDLO in humans is 30mg/kg/6W.9

Symptoms of overdose include hypotension and tachycardia or bradycardia.7,8 Terlipressin may be given to treat hypotension and tachycardia if conventional vasopressors fail to control blood pressure.6
